Default Looking to have some machine work done for a school project - Shop recommendations?

Sup guys,

I'm on my school's FSAE team this year. We are looking for someone who can clean up the aluminum block and freshen up the cylinders. The engine was disassembled sitting in our shop [that got flooded] when Sandy hit. While the water line was below where it was sitting, the engine was still there in the humidity of the standing water.

Anyways, we're looking for basic stuff:
-Block and head cleaning
-Honing
-Removing/Repinning Piston/Rod

We might also need some help as far as reassembly. Little thinks like if we will be needing oversize bearings and such.

It's an R6 motorcycle engine if that helps.
Anyone looking to sponsor us works too! I can concoct a proposal / letter from faculty if need be.

Anywhere near NNJ/NYC works best. Looking to have this stuff done this week/next week.

Thanks!
